Windows Media + Quicktime detection?

I'm using the flexinode module to show quicktime videos on our site, homelessnation.org . The problem I'm having is that many PC users don't have quicktime installed. I'm wondering if anyone knows of a way to detect if a user has windows media player or quicktime, and show an appropriate video? Any tips would be appreciated.

Cheers

view custom module data

Hi all. I've written a simple module. The module writes a few fields to the database. I can confirm the data is acutally getting written to the database.
The problem is when I try to view the data, nothing shows up. The data is getting selected in my implementation of the hook_load. I'm using phptemplate. Do I have to create my own template or should node.tpl.php work for my custom module? I'm not calling hook_view since story and page don't use them. Am I missing something obvious? Thanks.

How to include page title in breadcrumbs?

Breadcrumbs exclude the page title by default. It's shown right bellow so why bother, right?
But how to include the title if one need it for some reason?

I've found the place in menu.inc the function menu_get_active_breadcrumb().
The last line excludes the title by 'array_pop($links)' command.
If I comment this out, then it does somehow what I want, but not entirely.
It works great for pages which have visible static menu item associated with it.
It does not work for node lists, category listing, single pages without menu items, etc.

Different sign up pages depending on role

I am making a site that has 2 main roles; 1 for creating content and the other for viewing content.

The contert creaters can only view content they have created and have to pay a sign up fee, whereas the viewers can sign up for free but can't create the content.

I can do some of this by setting the permissions for the roles etc but I can't find a way to have a sign up page for the role needed. I want to get different information from the paid and non-paid roles, as well as have a payment link on the paid one (I think i will hack paypal subscribe to use worldpay)

Disable "create new account"?

Hi,

How do disable the "create new account" feature in Drupal 4.7-CVS? In 4.6 there was an option under Administer > Users > Configure but there's no "configure" tab in Drupal-4.7-CVS. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Jack

Drupal Gallery Module: Random Image when clicked, opens up in wrong page?

Hello everyone -- I believe I successfully have Gallery2 and Drupal linked up using the Gallery module, but I have an issue with the random image block. When I click on the random image, I want the user to be directed to the main gallery2 page for my site. Instead, it seems like the gallery page opens inside the main Drupal page.

What can I change and where to get the random image to open up to a new window to the gallery2 page? Do I need to set some sort of _blank or _parent somewhere in the code?
